			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Sun (and others) <a href="http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/usa/2889430/Militants-warn-Leo-girlfriend.html" target="_blank">reports</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><a href="http://www.israellycool.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/leo-bar.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-18743" style="margin-left: 6px; margin-right: 6px;" title="leo bar" src="http://www.israellycool.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/leo-bar.jpg" alt="" width="203" height="203" /></a>Militants warn Leo girlfriend</strong></p>
<p>JEWISH militants have ordered supermodel BAR REFAELI not to marry lover LEONARDO DICAPRIO.</p>
<p>Israeli Bar, 24, has been warned marrying the actor will dilute her Jewish race.</p>
<p>In a letter to the beauty, nationalist group Lehava wrote: &#8220;It is not by chance you were born Jewish.</p>
<p>&#8220;Your grandmother and her grandmother did not dream one of their descendants would remove future generations from the Jewish people.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added: &#8220;Come to your senses. Don&#8217;t marry Leonardo DiCaprio.&#8221;</p>
<p>The US hunk and Bar, who began dating in 2005, are an item again after splitting late last year.</p></blockquote>
<p>Assuming the report is true, we all know the word &#8220;militants&#8221; is applied euphemistically by the media to terrorists. As in people who target and murder innocent people to achieve their goals. There is no evidence in the report that this group threatened Bar Refaeli in any way.</p>
<p>Not only that, but The Sun has purposely painted this group as racists with the mention of race dilution. Yet the alleged group&#8217;s words indicate a concern for the continuity of the Jewish people, rather than some Nazi-esque notion of racial purity.</p>
<p>True, The Sun is known for sensationalizing, but that does not make this example of media bias any less disgusting.</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong>: Interestingly enough, The Sun has another report on this entitled <a href="http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2888997/Model-told-dont-marry-DiCaprio.html" target="_blank">Model told &#8216;don&#8217;t marry&#8217; DiCaprio</a>, with slightly less inflammatory wording.</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="color: #ff0000;">ISRAELI</span> (<em>instead of Jewish &#8211; ed</em>) militants have ordered Bar Refaeli <span style="color: #ff0000;">not to betray her grandparents</span> by marrying boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio.</p>
<p>The supermodel, 24, has been warned she will dilute her race if she marries outside of her religion.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The title of this post is taking from The Sun, which reports that Islam has a new, <a href="http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/article1954666.ece" target="_blank">wacky recruit</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.israellycool.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/michale-jackson-brigades.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-8095" style="margin-left: 6px; margin-right: 6px;" title="michael-jackson-brigades" src="http://www.israellycool.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/michale-jackson-brigades.jpg" alt="" width="183" height="140" /></a>Michael Jackson has become a Muslim — and changed his name to MIKAEEL.</p>
<p>The skint superstar, 50, donned Islamic garb to pledge allegiance to the Koran in a ceremony at a pal’s mansion in Los Angeles, The Sun can reveal.</p>
<p>Jacko sat on the floor wearing a tiny hat after an Imam was summoned to officiate — days before the singer is due to appear at London’s High Court where he is being sued by an Arab sheik.</p>
<p>A source told last night how Jacko, brought up as a Jehovah’s Witness, decided to convert as he used a studio at the home of his chum to record a new album.</p>
<p>The star — whose hits include The Way You Make Me Feel — was spotted looking “a bit down” by a producer and a songwriter who had both embraced Islam.</p>
<p>The source said: “They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea.</p>
<p>“An Imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief.” Mikaeel is the name of one of Allah’s angels.</p>
<p>“Jacko rejected an alternative name, Mustafa — meaning “the chosen one”.</p>
<p>Brit singer Yousef Islam, 60 — who was called Cat Stevens until he famously converted — turned up to help Jacko celebrate.</p>
<p>It was his pals David Wharnsby — a Canadian songwriter — and producer Phillip Bubal who counselled Jacko.</p>
<p>The pair’s new names are Dawud Wharnsby Ali and Idris Phillips.</p>
<p>Jacko now prays to Mecca after the ceremony at the Hollywood Hills home of Toto keyboard player Steve Porcaro, 51, who composed music on the singer’s Thriller album.</p>
<p>Jacko, who rarely ventures out without a mask, is due to give evidence on Monday in a £4.7million lawsuit brought by Prince Abdulla Al-Khalif of Bahrain.</p>
<p>The sheik claims he bankrolled the singer’s lavish lifestyle in exchange for an exclusive recording contract. The billionaire sent songs for him to record but claims he was blanked.</p>
<p>He told the court yesterday: “Many times he confirmed to me he would pay me back.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Mikaeel? Sounds more like he has converted to Russian mob boss.</p>
<p>In any event, I will take this with a grain of salt, especially considering there were reports about Jackson&#8217;s supposed conversion almost two years ago (as reported on <a href="http://www.israellycool.com/2007/01/31/wahhabi-wacko/" target="_blank"><em>Israellycool</em></a>). And we are talking about The Sun here.</p>
<p>But if it turns out that Jackson did convert to Islam, I wonder if he will adapt some of his old songs to conform with his new beliefs. I am guessing Beat It may be a <a href="http://blogs.reuters.com/faithworld/2008/02/01/looking-past-the-blood-at-ashura/" target="_blank">prime contender</a>.</p>
